/lit/ - Literature

I'm an application developer (a.k.a. generic code monkey) and I want to die.

society has already degenerated to complete atomization and relegating everyone to wagies, like you

In the past 5 years there have only been a few novels that I've really liked. I get an overwhelming feeling of pointlessness when reading most books, and especially novels when they're not extremely enjoyable.

I have the sense that novels are on their way down as an art form, have been going down for a long time, and are nearing poetry levels of pretentious irrelevance, as they become merely an ornament for a certain class of people: mainly women, Jews, middle class to upper middle class public sector / media / university parasites, etc. Basically the wives of bankers who need a hobby.

The above feeling is no longer avoided by reading old books because things clearly haven't changed significantly. It's not that I dislike these people automatically, I just dgaf about them and have little to gain because I'll never be part of the circlejerk.

I'm not sure if /lit/ really cares though. It is filled with 18 year olds on the ground floor of their intellectual journeys. Each individual needs to exalt what they are told to exalt because, unlike the other hopeless suckers, they'll be the one to get ahead.

No its a despondent wagie

Can wageslaves still be poets?

>he thinks he can wageslave and write at the same time

How do wageslaves have energy after work? i just want to go straight to bed. Feel like an old man.

Can't deal with being a wagie. I want to go back to that comfy neetdom.

Wagies gotta delude themselves somehow, they don't really have a choice

How do i adapt to wageslave life? After years of NEETdom i can't deal with it. All my free time is interrupted about anxiety about work and anxiety when i'm at work ect

>he wasn't born rich

Too bad for you wagie, now get back to work

I'm sick of my minimum wage job, but i have no marketable skills or connections and live in a small town. Don't know where to even start to get out.

I just want out of wageslavery all together

>tfw you will never be a NEET again

Retail

No connections, no formal education, no experience, NO WAY OUT
